Officers carried out a major operation this morning to clear the central London HQ of the anti-G8 movement before their planned march even got underway. Nearly 1,200 officers were mobilised across London and hundreds swooped on a squat in Soho, tearing down the doors and removing around 40 people occupying it. They also trailed a protest through the West End, making further arrests. It was planned as the first day of a week of protests against next week's G8 meeting. Anti-capitalist demonstrators identified around one hundred targets across the West End, including banks, hedge funds and even nightclubs they said were symbols of wealth. Instead, it was the police who struck first. They searched the Soho building and the squatters they found there, most of whom were subsequently allowed to go free. Police said they made the pre-emptive strike because they feared that the protesters had weapons and were planning to bring serious disorder to central London. But anti-G8 demonstrators said they had squatted the former police Section House on Beak Street in Soho to protest against the number of empty properties in London and one told the Independent he saw a police officer punch a protester in the face as the building was cleared. Riot police swooped at around 10am today, forming cordons to seal off the building from the surrounding streets. They brought tools in to cut down the doors after protesters barricaded them. People working nearby, who were told not to leave their offices while the operation was carried out, hung out of their windows to get a better view. Demonstrators hung banners out of the windows, one of which read: "No Pasaran". Some went on to the roof to watch police progress but were soon replaced there by officers. At around 3pm, the first demonstrators began to leave the building as officers moved in. Others, however, continued to resist. Police said that at least one of the arrests was made on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon and at least one more was on suspicion of criminal damage. Police said another person was arrested over an alleged assault on a police officer. But protesters claimed that police assaulted them. After leaving the building, one squatter - who did not want to be named - said: "There were people on the balcony trying to communicate with the police, asking for time to make a decision because they were worried about homelessness. The police officer said that he would go and make a decision on that. Two minutes later, they came with axle-grinders. "There was quite a lot of activity but I was just behind the guy who got hit. I was trying to move back and they grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and punched him square in his face and split his lip open." As a police helicopter whirred above, another demonstrator - who gave her name only as Jasmine - said she left voluntarily when police got into the building. She added: "They managed to cut through out barricading...people tried to resist and there was a little violence. Everyone is safe. "I wasn't going to leave voluntarily and then it got to the point that they were in the building and I thought 'no one's going to hold it down now they're in'." At the same time, another group of around 200-300 anti-capitalists marched through the West End, while a large police escort trailed them. They visited some of the target sites, which featured on a map posted online last month, and were met everywhere with lines of police. Following police advice to West End businesses to take precaution, the Ritz pulled down its shutters. Officers were also standing outside Fortnum and Mason, which was the target of a previous protest in 2011. A police spokesman said the arrests were on suspicion of "various offences including violent disorder, possession of pointed/bladed articles and a variety of public order offences". Police "categorically" denied a Taser was used in clearing the building after reports surfaced online one had been discharged. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f7f_1370971452 KLM35AboveUK G8 protests: 1,200 police deployed in London as 32 people are arrested following clashes between officers and anti-capitalist demonstrators.

Thu, 06 Jun 2013 15:32:38 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=0e5_1370546907 barogers619 On a June afternoon in the middle of New York's Times Square, Charlie Veitch took out his phone, turned on the camera and began recording a statement about the 2001 destruction of the World Trade Center. "I was a real firm believer in the conspiracy that it was a controlled demolition," he started. "That it was not in any way as the official story explained. But, this universe is truly one of smoke screens, illusions and wrong paths. If you are presented with new evidence, take it on, even if it contradicts what you or your group want to believe. You have to give the truth the greatest respect, and I do." To most people, it doesn't sound like a particularly outrageous statement to make. In fact, the rest of the video was almost banal in its observations; that the destruction of the towers may actually have been caused by the two 767 passenger jets that flew into them. But to those who subscribed to Veitch's YouTube channel, a channel he set up to promulgate conspiracy theories like the one he was now rejecting, it was tantamount to heresy. "You sell out piece of s---. Rot in hell, Veitch," ran one comment beneath the video. "This man is a pawn," said another. "Your a f---ing pathetic slave," shrilled a third. "What got ya? Money?" So runs what passes for debate on the internet. Veitch had expected a few spiteful comments from the so-called "Truth Movement". What he had not expected was the size or the sheer force of the attack. In the days after he uploaded his video, entitled No Emotional Attachment to 9/11 Theories, Veitch was disowned by his friends, issued with death threats and falsely accused of child abuse in an email sent to 15,000 of his followers. "I went from being Jesus to the devil," he says now. "Or maybe Judas. I thought the term 'Truth Movement' meant that there'd be some search for truth. I was wrong. I was the new Stalin. The poster boy for a mad movement." Charlie Veitch, before his change of heart, protesting in New York's Times Square Charlie Veitch is not Jesus nor Judas nor the devil nor, even, Stalin. He's currently an unemployed father-of-one who lives in a semi, in Salford, Greater Manchester, with his fianc'ee, Stacey. Baggily dressed and 6ft 5in, the 32-year-old looks like a student but carries himself like a philosopher, wielding aphorisms and gesticulating theatrically, as if conducting a symphony of his own sagacity. Veitch is spellbound by ideas, but the problem is that he has two competing world views that he's never been able to reconcile. Born in Rio de Janeiro to a Brazilian mother and a Scottish merchant seaman, Veitch inherited a Right-wing outlook from his father, a patriotic, working class Thatcherite. But his father also passed on a mistrust of authority. "He told me, just because someone's wearing a uniform or a fancy hat, it doesn't mean they're your boss," he says.Veitch Snr was also responsible for Charlie's peripatetic childhood. Attending "a new school every six months", he was bullied on many continents. "I was always birds--- head, because I have a patch of white hair," he says. At Edinburgh Academy, a private school he attended from 14, he fostered an antipathy towards "rugger buggers" who had rich fathers, became prefects and "got all the girls and all the attention". For a while, Veitch's Right-wing opinions dominated his decision-making. He joined the Territorial Army and got a job in the City. But, the other narrative, of a world which pitched "second-rate citizens", as he'd been at school, against the "rugger buggers" - the privileged elite and the heirs to power - was always there, slowly creeping up on him. And at six o'clock one morning, after a night out at a club, it pounced. "I was absolutely spangled from the nightclub when my best friend said 'Charlie, you know you're Right-wing and you joined the Army? Well, they were lying to you.' I'm like, 'What?' He said, '9/11; it wasn't as you think.' It was almost like an initiation into a cult, a religion. You're being given special knowledge." His friend showed him the online documentary Terrorstorm: A History of Government Sponsored Terror, made by the American radio host Alex Jones. It parsed a new version of history, in which governments secretly organised terror attacks to spread fear and extend their matrices of control. From the Reichstag fire to the Gulf of Tonkin up to the present day, it writhed with apparently unassailable facts and sources. Jones is a brilliantly effective propagandist who recently made headlines for his hostile showdown on US television with Piers Morgan, over gun control. His YouTube channel has had over 250 million views while his masterpiece, Terrorstorm, has been watched more than 7 million times. Shortly after watching it, Veitch was made redundant and, instead of looking for a new job, he used some of his lb4,000 payout to buy a camcorder and a megaphone and began uploading short videos to YouTube. As the founder of what he called the Love Police, he was filmed performing quasi situationist stunts, such as standing outside McDonald's with his megaphone berating customers ("Excuse me, sir. Next time I'd advise you to buy some real food for your son"). In more meditative moments, he'd explore his own spiritual, philosophical and conspiratorial notions. Veitch soon gathered subscribers by the tens of thousands. And the bigger Love Police grew, the more radical Veitch became. He occupied Fortnum & Mason during the anti-capitalism rally and Millbank Tower during the student fees demonstrations. He was a witness to the death of Ian Tomlinson during the 2009 G20 summit, called for "chaos" in London, was arrested in Toronto, Edinburgh and London and invited to festivals around the world. "People were throwing money at me. I did a donation appeal and overnight I had lb3,500 in my account," he says. Then, there were the women. "I could have anyone. And there's a lot of cute activist girls in Holland and Denmark." Thrillingly, he was courted by his heroes, Jones and David Icke, the former television sports presenter who believes humanity is being controlled by alien lizards. "It was like being a struggling actor and Tom Cruise phones you," he says. Jones invited him on to his internet show Prison Planet and praised his "great work". Veitch interviewed Icke outside parliament just after the 2010 general election, and in return was sent a birthday present of a T-shirt and a book, signed, "To Charles, a great man doing great things. Love David". Veitch was now a well-known figure in the conspiracy community. But, while some believers could be dismissed as harmless crackpots, there was a malevolent undercurrent to many of the theories. In essence, the modern conspiracy narrative is the same as the one that has existed since at least the 19th century: that the few (often termed the "Illuminati") control the many. This, of course, is the nucleus of the dangerous anti-Jewish myth. When he was an insider, did he experience anti-Semitism? His eyes open wide: "Loads. Loads. I was once accused of being a Jew because of my olive skin and my nose. They said, 'We can't trust him'." And when they say the 'Illuminati' or 'Reptiles', do they actually mean Jews? "It's slightly complicated but, mostly, yes," he says. Charlie Veitch in the BBC documentary Conspiracy Road Trip The turning point came when Veitch accepted an invitation to appear in a BBC documentary, Conspiracy Road Trip, made to mark the 10th anniversary of 9/11. Veitch was accompanied by four people, all of whom believed the many conspiracies surrounding the attack. Veitch was convinced that the Twin Towers had been brought down in a controlled explosion by the government, in cahoots with Mossad. In an attempt to change his mind, the documentary crew took Veitch to meet experts including the chief air traffic controller on the day, demolition specialists and architects. At the start, Veitch was defiant. He showed a video, on a laptop, of the buildings collapsing, saying, "That's a controlled demolition if ever I saw one." He publicly berated the film's presenter, Andrew Maxwell: "You weren't there, man. You just have this obedient psychology." But the more experts he met, the more troubled Veitch became. Finally, when it was shown to him that the towers didn't, in fact, collapse in a manner consistent with a controlled explosion, and how preposterous his notion was that teams of secret operatives had somehow planted thousands of high explosives in the buildings, he admitted defeat. "This is hard, you know, because I've hung on to these ideas for years now," he told Maxwell. "I've always hung out with people who say, 'Yeah, conspiracy! 9/11 demolition!' But now I've spoken to a guy who's explained it. And it makes sense." Back in his hotel room, he phoned his girlfriend. "I don't think 9/11 was an inside job," confessed Veitch. For a moment, there was silence. "You're probably just tired," she said. But by the third day of filming Veitch was so excited by what he'd learnt he decided to post his thoughts on his YouTube channel. And that was when all hell broke loose. "It was relentless," he says. "A guy in Manchester set up a YouTube channel called 'Kill Charlie Veitch'. It said, 'Charlie, I hope you know I'm going to come and kill you. Enjoy your last few days. Goodbye.' So many hate videos were posted - my face superimposed on a pig and someone's killing the pig." Another message featured images of his sister's young children incorporated within a video of child pornography. David Icke posted a message saying that Veitch would come to "deeply regret what he has done", and emailed saying, "Don't write to me. I don't know you, mate." Alex Jones posted a film in which he claimed he'd known "all along", and that Veitch had "psychopath, sociopath eyes". His mother called, devastated, believing the paedophilia "confession" which she'd been emailed, along with 15,000 others, was real. All of which has damaged him. "I don't have the same love for people as I did," he says. "I've become a misanthrope and I've become very cynical. I hope it goes away." Looking back, he describes the conspiracy community as an "evil-worshipping paranoia. As someone who's been deep in it, and seen the hatred and the insanity, I think big terrorist attacks will come from conspiracy theorists." He can envisage an assassination or a bombing carried out by a conspiracy believer who has lost all contact with reality. Conspiracy theorists, he says, are often "bullied people. People who maybe didn't get the girls at school... So they see a lot of rugger bugger types and they're against anything to do with them. They will side with the devil, as long as the devil is against the West." It's impossible to avoid the observation that the person he describes resembles his own schoolboy self. And if his conflation of "rugger buggers" and "the West" is telling, so is his current ideological position. "I've gone full circle in my Right-wing thinking," he says. "There's a professional victimhood in conspiracy theorists. There's a hatred of high achievers." Veitch is now hoping to set up a film production company and to carve out a new career as a documentary maker. As for his own involvement in the conspiracy movement, Veitch has a simpler theory. When asked what it was in his psychology that made him susceptible, he answers emphatically. "Ego," he says. "Ego made me vulnerable." http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=0e5_1370546907 barogers619 The 9/11 conspiracy theorist who changed his mind Truther, 9/11, change of mind, Charlie Veitch Tue, 04 Jun 2013 07:28:01 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=83a_1370345076 Detroit Iron By RICH LOWRY Last Updated: 3:41 AM, June 4, 2013 What you're now hearing across the land is a collective whine. Blue-state Democrats are upset that Texas Gov. Rick Perry dares come and play in their sandboxes, and worse, threatens to "poach" jobs from their states. The Web site Politico reports that Perry's attempts to lure jobs to Texas are "infuriating to prominent Democrats around the country." Gov. Jerry Brown of California - Perry's foremost target - has dismissed Perry's handiwork in scatological terms. Democrats from Illinois huff and puff about the temerity of it all. "He better not take our businesses away," Sen. Dick Durbin warned. Or what, exactly? What recourse does Illinois have, except improving its own business environment? Which would mean Rick Perry is good for Texas . . . and for Illinois. Perry is exploiting the genius of our federalist system for all it's worth. In his business-recruitment trips, accompanied by trash-talking ads and Texas-sized braggadocio, he's subjecting other states to the fire of competition. In an ad in Crain's Chicago Business, Perry offered businesses in the state "an escape route to economic freedom . . . a route to Texas." This is exactly how the Founders imagined the interplay among the states working. George Mason scholar Michael Greve refers to the system as "competitive" federalism. "This federalism relies on exit and mobility - of capital, and of labor - as a means of disciplining government," he writes. "Competitive federalism is a terrific prescription for a big, diverse country with a highly mobile citizenry and a national government that responds poorly to democratic demands." Perry may be boastful, but he has a lot to boast about. Texas had a 6.4 percent unemployment rate in April. When President Obama recently made Austin, Texas, his first stop on a trip touting job creation, Perry welcomed him with an ad noting, accurately, "Over the last 10 years, Texas created 33 percent of the net new jobs nationwide." Perry's foes assume there must be something unfair or wrong about this. Texas, they scoff, is benefiting from an energy boom. Well, states like California and New York also have oil and gas resources, but refuse to exploit them fully for political reasons. Regardless, Texas job growth ranges much more widely than the energy sector. Texas also is portrayed as a pit of backwardness. It's not so, as Chuck DeVore of the Texas Public Policy Foundation - himself a transplant from California - points out. A calculation of poverty rates from the Census Bureau that takes account of cost of living found that California had the highest poverty rate in the country from 2009 through 2011, at 23.5 percent; the adjusted rate for Texas was about 17 percent. He writes that the two states are "remarkably similar in size, diversity and natural resources," but "they differ in their governance." Texas benefits from low tax rates, a low cost of living, light regulation, checks on abusive lawsuits and its status as a right-to-work state. California has none of the above. Although its unemployment rate has been declining, it is still 9 percent, the fourth-highest in the nation. "Poaching" jobs sounds pejorative, but it amounts to making it easier for people to do business. The waste hauler Waste Connections Inc. moved from Sacramento, Calif., to a location near Houston. Its CEO told the Web site The Fiscal Times that it took the company 16 months to design and build a new building in Texas, when the permitting alone would have taken three years in California. If blue-state Democrats want Rick Perry to stop bothering them, they should quit whining and start learning from his example. comments.lowry@nationalreview.com http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/in_praise_of_rick_perry_poaching_DVbHI5Lb30a7sPQeSZuuWL http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=83a_1370345076 Detroit Iron In praise of Rick Perry's poaching Texas Gov.

The abusive cop was sucessfully run off by a protester's probing questions, but the racket still interfered with what was supposed to be a silent vigil. The only sound was suppposed to the the soundtrack from the video of Ringling Brothers abusing animals in their circus. The abusive cop decided to go out of his way to find out if anyone was on their ban list. When this cop began harassing one of the protesters, another had to leave the vigil and shoot video instead of continuing to protest. The cop had a sheet of photos of people banned from campus for previous-and peaceful-protests against Ringling Brothers and Barnum Bailey Circus at George Mason University. There is a history of abuse and even wrongful arrests of peaceful protesters against Ringling Brothers circus at George Mason University. It was at GMU in 2008 that Prince William County detective (OUT of jurisidiction) Vincent Antigano decided in his capacity with the FBI and JTTF to seek arrest warrants against four protesters for wearing masks, leading to the arrest of one protester. This, in turn, led to a chain of events that forced the removal of Vincent Antignano from his former role in harassing protesters for the FBI Washinton Field Office. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=839_1366395554 dcdirectactionnews GMU vigil for circus animals disrupted by nosy and aggressive cop George Mason Univerisy, police abuse, Ringling Brothers and Barnum Bailey, circuses, animal rights Mon, 15 Apr 2013 09:55:15 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b80_1366033497 SouthCentral This is where I come from!

Link to Houston Chronicle: http://www.chron.com/default/article/Focus-as-NRA-meeting-wraps-up-Child-safety-4490229.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ National Review: Against Abstinence-Only Gun Education Yesterday, the front page of the Houston Chronicle boasted a photograph of a five-year-old boy who attended the National Rifle Association's annual convention with his family. In the photograph, the boy, Tate, is holding a plastic gun, "using a video-game at an exhibit booth." "Focus for day: Child safety," declared the Chronicle's headline. The su "Families taking practical advice and positive memories home." Tate's mother, Rebecca, is both practical and positive: She wishes to make "sure know the proper way to be around and not to be afraid." The New York Daily News remains censorious. Lambasting the event's "Youth Day," which featured an air-gun range at which children could compete to win multicolored marksmanship ribbons, the paper printed a series of pictures of children holding firearms. The captions read "SCARY SIGHT," "FRIGHTENING," and "SICK!" Advertisement Subtle the Daily News is not. Bill Hutchinson, author of the piece, complained that "some of the attendees were the age of the Newtown massacre victims, others too young to know the difference between a toy gun and a real one." This is astonishingly dishonest. How, pray, are children supposed to "know the difference between a toy gun and a real one" if they aren't shown that difference? And what better way could there be of showing them that difference than to offer them instruction from a professional, as the NRA did, or - even better - having conscientious parents who are open about it? Love them or hate them, guns do exist - there are 360 million of them in the United States. Are we to pretend that this is not true? The Left is fond of pointing to unpleasant Centers for Disease Control and Prevention statistics that show, inter alia, that the number of children under the age of 13 who die from firearms in the United States is 25 times that of the combined under-13 casualties of the next 25 industrialized nations. This is a terrible, terrible thing. But progressive thinking as to how America might deal with that terrible thing is typically confused.

Tell an Adult" if they see a gun, Nancy Hwa from the Center to Prevent Handgun Violence told ABC News: The Eddie Eagle program tends to glamorize guns by making them seem like something you can only do when you're an adult - just like drinking and smoking. You know what happens when you tell a child something like that. They want to do it more than ever. If this is true, then what accounts for the widespread horror among Hwa's fellow travelers at pictures of children holding guns? What explains the recent advertising campaign from advocacy group "Moms Demand Action," which aims to shock by showing schoolchildren holding firearms? If Eddie the Eagle's making guns "seem like something you can only do when you're an adult" is so roundly destructive, then what's the quarrel with those who would make it clear that it's something you can do - safely - when you're a child? My suspicion is that if one were to apply the New York Daily News's principle to, say, sex education, those who are ostensibly so vexed would come down firmly on the side of open discussion. Take the U.S. Concealed Carry Association's view of the matter: When it comes to kids and guns, you have two choices: Ignorance or education. But here's the reality - if you take the ignorance approach, your kids will get their firearms "education" from movies, video games, or, from their friends. Sound familiar? "Abstinence only" is widely mocked on the Left on precisely these grounds; why should abstinence-only gun education be excluded from the derision? Surely it couldn't be because Eddie the Eagle is an employee of the hated NRA . . . ? One man, quoted in the Daily News's story, offered a downright silly view: "They shouldn't be teaching kids how to use guns. What happens when they get older? They might become like that Connecticut killer," said Cal Castille, 24, of Houston, referring to Newtown gunman Adam Lanza. They might, I suppose. But there's no evidence whatsoever that they will. Discussing gun safety with one's children was once the norm, and not just in that lost Ruritanian past to which the president likes to imagine conservatives are desperate to return. As late as the 1980s, gun clubs remained ubiquitous across America, having been installed as standard into high-school basements in the first half of the 20th century. And, as George Mason's Walter E. Williams has documented, prior to the passage of the 1968 Gun Control Act, "private transfers of guns to juveniles were unrestricted. Often a youngster's 12th or 14th birthday present was a shiny new .22-caliber rifle, given to him by his father." Critics of more muscular defenses of the right to bear arms like to assure the public that they have no problem with hunting and do not wish to undermine longstanding American traditions. What they are after, they say, is "commonsense" and "sane" regulation. With this putative affection for "common sense" in mind, one might ask them: "At what age should a child first be taken hunting?" What is a "commonsense" time to tell your child about guns? At 18, perhaps? Or maybe at 21, to accompany one's first drink? The truth of the matter? For the enemies of the right to keep and bear arms there is no correct age. Bill Hutchinson and his ilk consider guns to be a negative thing per se. They don't want you becoming familiar with weapons in the same way that, regardless of your age, they don't want you becoming familiar with 50,000 volts of electricity. Weapons, in their view, are inherently destructive. They may pay lip service to hunters and to tradition, but this is no more than a smart tactical ploy. "The photos from the event speak for themselves," Politic365's Lauren Victoria Burke wrote this weekend. The photos from the event "speak for themselves" for me, too. In them, I see supervised kids being taught marksmanship and gun safety by professionals and by their parents; I see children being freed from fear and prepared for life in the real world; most important of all, I see America's children being instructed by one of the country's foremost "little platoons" - and in an education system dominated by centralized orthodoxy and stolid progressivism, I can think of little that is more exhilarating. http://www.nationalreview.com/article/347656/against-abstinence-only-gun-education http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=4c5_1368097073 LostRothschild Against Abstinence-Only Gun Education 2, 2nd, second, amendment, gun, firearm, rights, constitution, tyranny, freedom, nra, convention, child, safety Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:01:41 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=5b1_1367218742 USMC5816 Marines put their searching skills to the test during the tracking portion of the Combat Hunter course at Kahuku Training Area, April 8, 2013. The Combat Hunter course is a program designed to teach Marines how to track targets, good or bad, by noticing differences in the environment around them. Upon their arrival at Kahuku Training Area, 26 Marines split into three teams and received a mission brief. The objective of each team was to use their skills to track their designated target, or quarry. "Everyone knows how to track, but we only use one tracker to locate the quarry," said Sgt. Carlos E. Mendoza, a combat instructor at School of Infantry West at Camp Pendleton, Calif. "The quarry is a person of interest, and doesn't always mean you're looking for a bad guy." The skills learned from the Combat Hunter course aren't used solely to look for enemies. The same skills are used during search and rescue missions or to locate a missing person. The instructors participated as role-players and acted as elusive targets during the training exercise. They took a 30-minute head start, which allowed them to establish trails for the teams to track. Spores are pieces of evidence left unintentionally by the target. After the team has examined the spore, they follow that evidence based on the facts they have gathered. The teams started at their designated initial commencement points, or ICPs, where the first sign, or spore, was found. Marines within each team set up a 360-degree perimeter of security and investigated the details of the spore. "The methods we teach help enhance a Marine's understanding of how to see signs or clues," Mendoza said. "They utilize that knowledge to use against their enemies." After their ICP, one of the teams followed the evidence into the tree line and began examining spores they encountered, ranging from footprints to broken tree limbs. Each team tracked their quarries between five to seven kilometers. "Tracking is very weather-dependent, but it's not too complicated to learn," said Staff Sgt. Eliazar Andrade, Combat Hunter range safety officer and staff noncommissioned officer in charge at School of Infantry West, Detachment Hawaii. "It's a skill that helps you in real world situations, and (one) you'll never forget." Throughout the tracking exercise, the Marines came across several fake improvised explosive devices, and conducted proper procedures for handling them. Good tracking skills aid Marines in finding IEDs with action indicators or disturbances in the surrounding area. Good tracking techniques and noticing action indicators, in a proven study by 1st Marine Expeditionary Force, find approximately 80 percent of IEDs. Marines are taught three main skills throughout the Combat Hunter course: tracking, observation and profiling. These skills are the foundation of the program and teach Marines to be aware of dangers at all times, such as IEDs. "We're helping Marines make quicker and smarter decisions when it comes to possible threats," said Capt. John Dick, the officer in charge of Combat Hunter course who is with Advanced Infantry Training Battalion-West at Camp Pendleton, Calif. "The skill sets we have are unique." At the end of the day, the Marines found their way back to the ICP where they started. Tired, sweaty and sore, they still had determined looks on their faces as they spoke with their instructors on what went right and what went wrong. "It was tough, and we grew frustrated because we kept finding ourselves going off track from the way the spores were leading us," said Cpl. Aaron Mason, who is a rifleman with 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment. "We pulled ourselves together and kept tracking 'til the end." A week later the Marines began observation and profiling techniques at Marine Corps Training Area Bellows, April 17, 2013. Again, split into three teams, the Marines observed a mock Afghan village from three different observation points, taking notes of key personnel and their activities. The teams communicated with each other via radio while observing role-players in the village from a couple hundred meters. Through communications, certain villagers were given codenames such as "John Wayne" or "White Knight." "We want Marines to look for the baseline," said Staff Sgt. Eric Boyd, a combat instructor with AITB. "Any anomalies matter, and that's what we want the Marines to learn from these scenarios." A baseline is a term used to describe an area where nothing out of the ordinary is occurring. In three different scenarios, the Marines noted any anomalies spotted during their observation of the role-players. As the Marines observed the Afghan village, they grew aware of the increasingly violent scenarios and quickly assessed how each one played out in the end. "The importance of observation is to notice what's gone missing or is out of place," Boyd said. "It's their job to be proactive, realize what's going on and make a justifiable decision." Noticing the subtleties in any situation helped the Marines learn how to use tactics they were taught not only in combat situations, but real world situations too. "What we teach will help the Marines in the civilian world when they're finished with their Marine Corps careers," Mendoza said. "For example, the Boston Bombings. The police found their suspects by examining the scene's baseline for anomalies. These are the kind of observations that solidify our positions as combat hunters."

But such attitudes have drastically changed, according to a new study that finds the two states last in individual freedom. The "Freedom in the 50 States" study published last week by the libertarian-leaning Mercatus Center ranks New York last and California second to last. The survey is based on fiscal issues such as job prospects and tax rates, regulatory policies that include property rights and personal freedoms such as gun laws. "When it comes to overall freedom, New York ranks dead last," the study's authors said. They point out that New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has taken away - or at least tried to take away - several personal freedoms, including his failed effort to outlaw the sale of sodas 16 ounces and larger. "Though the law ran into a judicial buzz saw on the eve of its enactment earlier this month, it demonstrates the attitude city and state legislators have toward their constituents," the authors noted. Bloomberg has already imposed a stiff tax on cigarette sales and is a leading advocate for tougher gun laws. In addition, New Yorkers pay a state income tax of 14 percent. "Even New Yorkers who don't care about sweet drinks have to deal with the highest state and local tax burden in the country," the authors wrote. The result is New Yorkers are voting with their feet, with roughly 1.7 million leaving between 2000 and 2010, though newborns and new immigrants are keeping the state's population steady, according to the study. "We're not living in a police state," White Plains attorney John Murtagh told CBS New York. "But the economics of New York clearly don't work. And then you see things like Mike Bloomberg and his Big Gulp sodas." The top five states with the most freedom are North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee, New Hampshire and Oklahoma, according to the study from the center, at George Mason University in Virginia. North Dakota came in first in large part based of its "very low taxes" and government debt, the authors said. "However, its spending is uncharacteristically high." The three other lowest ranking states are Rhode Island, Hawaii and New Jersey, in descending order. The study authors said California's biggest problem is business regulation, though a recent attempt to impose a higher tax rate on the state's highest earners has become a major complaint among residents. "The Golden State, with hundreds of miles of picturesque Pacific coastline, nonetheless managed to drive off a net of 1.5 million residents between 2000 and 2010 -- over 4 percent of its 2000 population," the authors wrote. They also pointed out Californians' personal income contracted by 0.4 percent a year in the seven years before the Great Recession struck, a record worse than any other state besides Michigan.
